Verse
G	       Em		    C		       G
Oh people, look around you the signs are everywhere
       C           G        F          C       D             Em 
You've left it for somebody other than you to be the one to care

	G               Em                 C               C/B    A7
You're lost inside your houses there's no time to find you now
            G                          D
While your walls are burning and your towers are turning

              Em		        C	                G
I'm going to leave you here and try to get down to the sea somehow
D

Verse
     G	                 Em	              C	                G
The road is filled with homeless souls every woman, child and man
    C	      G   F	          C              D              Em
Who have no idea where they will go but they'll help you if they can
      G	          Em				     C	   C/B		   A7
Now everyone must have some thought that's going to pull them through somehow
           G	           D
While the fires are raging hotter and hotter
        Em			                C	        
But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

Chorus
G    D		    C
    Rock me on the water
		    G	       D       C
    Sister will you soothe my fevered brow
G    D        Em
    Rock me on the water
      A
I'll get down to the sea somehow
       C
(I'll get down to the sea somehow)

Oh people, look among you it's there your hope must lie
C	      G		F	           C	     D              Em
There's a sea bird above you gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky
G	       Em			      C      C/B        A7
We all must do the best we can and then hang on to that gospel plow

When my life is over, and I stand before the father

Rock me on the water

Maybe I'll remember

Maybe I'll remember now

Rock me on the water
G	        D		C
The wind is with me now
      G           D        C
So rock me on the water
A
I'll get down to the sea somehow
C
I'll get down to the sea somehow

Rock me on the water
